Bowmore Warehousemen's Selection Whisky 17 Year Old · 1999 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with coppery highlights and a touch of mahogany.

Nose

Rife with smoky maritime peat, Bowmore’s aroma unfurls with salt-kissed air and lemon zest. Sherry-soaked figs and raisins weave through vanilla, toffee and dark chocolate, while subtle iodine and brine lend coastal depth. The perfume is elegant, restrained by oak and a whisper of spice, inviting sip after sip.

Palate

On the palate, a refined peat smoke meets sherry-softened fruit—fig, raisin and orange zest—woven with vanilla cream and cocoa. Salty coastal notes and a touch of spice lift the mouthfeel, while a velvety, full-bodied texture carries ash, smoke and oak. The finish is long and warming, tapering to a lingering smoky sweetness with a maritime hinterland.

Finish

Long, richly campfire-smoked and salty, the finish coats the palate with dark fruit and cocoa from the sherry cask, lingering with a whisper of orange zest and a gentle peat echo that slowly fades to warm oak.
